Procedure trends certainly suggest that we’ve entered the TAVR era, but a pair of new studies show that surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is a far better option for many younger and healthier patients who are increasingly seen as TAVR candidates. Much of these SAVR declines occurred in patients with tricuspid aortic valves (from 84.5%

In light of the growing number of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), there is an increasing demand for data regarding the management of failed TAVR procedures, including the possibility of a repeat TAVR intervention. No significant disparities were found in the rates of death at 30 days (4.7%

During medical school, one of the classic bedside exam questions we get is how to differentiate the valve issues of aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation, which produce similar but different murmurs when you listen with a stethoscope. They are the same ones asking about the murmur characteristics of aortic stenosis.
